This is crap. Why not sell plus sizes in the stores??

You're not the only one to think so. Twitter blew up about it.

It's Target. I never know WTF is up with them. I avoid going in there as much as humanly possible. I would like some inexpensive, fun scarves, though.

I also got caught up in the Target credit card hack and was incredibly annoyed with how they handled it. They sent customers an email that included tips on how to keep our credit card data safe. Umm, Target? I didn't lose my data. YOU DID! I don't need tips on data security. YOU DO!

I rarely find anything at Target that I feel like I have to have. Small appliances are usually cheaper elsewhere. Groceries are definitely cheaper elsewhere (and there's more variety). Electronics are sometimes a good deal when they're on sale.

Their plus size selections are awful. The fact that they'll make the line available online but not in the store is ridiculous. Because plus sized people don't need to try things on ever, right?

Obviously. I definitely don't have a closet full of stuff in a range of sizes that all fit!

I remember reading once that Lily didn't think her clothes were meant for larger women - it was years and years ago, and I don't recall where I read it, and I can't find it via web search. That said, even if I just dreamed it (and I don't think I did), it put me off. I also think the sorority prints that she did are pretty meh.

I'll pass, I think. But I am happy to know that I'm not alone in my frustration with Target's plus size selection.
